Update Account field based on insert Asset

I'm trying to update a field in "Account" if insert one "Asset" called AR.

 

I tried to create the trigger in "Asset", but it doesn't work.

 

Any help?

You are using the wrong ID. Swap the asset ID with the account id. See the code below:

 

trigger AtualizarCampoAR_Case on Asset (after insert, after update) {

    Asset[] ass = Trigger.new;
    
    Set<ID> accIds = new Set<ID>();
    for (Asset a:ass) {
      if (a.name.substring(0,2) == 'AR') {
          accIds.add(a.Account);
}
}
List<Account> accList = new List<Account>(); for (Account acc : [select ID, recordtypeid, Antecipado__c from Account where Id in :accIds for update]) { if (acc.recordtypeid == '012U00000000vYx'){ acc.Antecipado__c = 'AR';
accList.add(acc); }
}
update accList;
}

trigger AtualizarCampoAR_Case on Asset (after insert, after update) {

    Asset[] ass = Trigger.new;
    
    Set<ID> assIds = new Set<ID>();
    for (Asset a:ass)
      if (a.name.substring(0,2) == 'AR')
      assIds.add(a.Id);
    
for (Account acc : [select recordtypeid, Antecipado__c from Account where Assetid in :assIds for update])
    if (acc.recordtypeid == '012U00000000vYx'){
        acc.Antecipado__c = 'AR';
update acc;
} }

"No such column 'Assetid' on entity 'Account'"

 

It's because doesn't have this field (assetid) in account.

But the trigger is pretty simple and I'm just posting here for you understand what I'm trying to do.

accList.add(acc); }

update accList;
